bye Woodley, clark, keisel, taylor and maybe troy if he doesn’t take a salary cut, ala james Harrison. changes are coming big time in da burgh! replaced by shamarko Thomas, and Jason “all” worilds. new blood coming in ladies.. time to build back up with fresh young talent. thank you guys for years of excellent service. the door is right over there. take care then… bye bye now.

and for gods sake can we get ben a receiver who is over 5’9.. sanders, cotchery, brown etc.. little guys. how bout a nice 6’4 receiver for the redzone. little guys are ok from 20 to 20 but in the redzone give me a guy that can go up and make a play in the endzone. these little guys cant jump over my mom and shes 5’6!!!

they kept a lot of guys about a year too long. after the 8-8 season they should of made some moves. don’t be afraid rooney, tomlin, Colbert. sometimes ya gotta make harsh decisions. there have been many signs. lack of turnovers for 3 straight years. and we all know how big that stat is. late game losses because the defense couldn’t stop teams on the final drive. against ravens, raiders, and god almighty being tebowed! etc…..

Steelers can’t do this yet. They need him to beat the Browns so, you know, they can claim they “own the division” as our friendly trolls did yesterday. Those little victories are cute and keep the trolls warm at night. Meanwhile the Ravens and Bengals who are still relevant get to fight for a post season.

I can see 3 of the 5 being sent packing bigbenownsthenfl, Kiesle and Clark for sure, gotta keep 1-2 out if Troy, Taylor, and Wiidly for leadership. Troy gas struggled a little with his tackling but been almost the player he was a few years ago. Taylor has been beat on some plays but he is still a very effective cover man, he has a lot of one on one. Woodly is most likely done, future is bright with Jobes and Worilds, but he can still have an effect on a game.

@ac540. I think everyone “died” when “jumpball joe” won the super bowl! believe it or not there has been mediocre QBs that have won a super bowl before. Namath, esiason, flacco, dilfer….LOL dilfe

I think Woodley whole problem was he couldn’t stop eating. he muffin topped up to where his legs couldn’t hold all that muffin weight! if it wasn’t knee, it was calf, then hamstring, then hamstring again. mitchitized got it right. major disappointment!

I say save the $ only if they tie up Worilds 1st..Nice run Lamarr but we don’t need another beat up overpriced player who can’t earn his paycheck..or reduce his pay if he wants tostay for another year or 2

Woodley’s run is over. He had a few great season, but he isn’t staying healthy, nor is he getting to the QB. Paying linebackers elite money when they don’t produce is something the Steelers just don’t do. They barely even pay linebackers elite money when they DO produce.

Keisel is likely gone as well, although it might be worth giving his beard a one year deal.

I have no idea how Taylor has kept his job the last three years, and will be baffled if he comes back again next year.

Moving Clark while he still has any tread left on the tires at all makes sense with Shamarko waiting in the wings.

The only way you can keep 43 is to restructure his deal and get some speed in the secondary to protect him. I like what they are doing with moving him to linebacker in the nickel and dime sets. He’s not what he was, but he’s still Troy and he’s better than more than half of the free safeties out there right now.

The Steelers should be looking to draft at least one, possibly two corners, a REAL nose tackle, a pass rushing linebacker, a receiver over 6’1″, and someone to develop at free safety.

olcap, the last thing that will be remembered about the Big Ben/Tomlin era is the sideline incident. The first thing that will be remembered and associated with the Brady/Belicheck era is Spygate. The sooner you come to terms with that fact, the better off you’ll be.
